Discussing Mang Maning

 

 

 

I don’t know much about Mang Maning but he seem a nice character . I first noticed Mang Maning by my cousins contacts then on group pools I frequently visit . He occasionally visit my stream with kind comments but we were not contacts .

 

One thing I will remember most of Mang Maning was those photos he posted a week ago , the vintage photo of him and his late wife during their honeymoon in 1972 and a separate shot of a lovely red rose. I find them really touching photos . I thought they were remarkably sweet and obviously noticeable who he still adored for all these years . I would admit I went to visit to look at those photos a few times and thought of it ' WOW ' , it must be love beyond the bounds of death !

With brief moments of emphaty what this person had been through for all those years since he lost his wife . Then in only few days after his postings , he’s gone !

 

The knowledge he passed away seem unbelievable .

 

By the way he finally added me as a contact four days ago ,perhaps that was his last day in flickr .

 

 

Thanks for your friendship Mang M ,we will surely miss you . God bless and may you’ll rest in peace .

 

My sincere condolence to his family and love ones.
